I'm kinda hoping that Jesse gets the sack now. That way I can enthusiastically join Sara in complaining about the next dumb ba***rd that takes the job.... ;-)

He's been here nearly a year, and nothing has improved.

We concede the same goals over and over again.

We never control a game and we can't hold onto a lead.

We play 'well' for maybe ten or twenty minutes a game, and even that it's total chaos rather than orchestrated attacks.

The narrow system is too easy to counter, and Marsch is unable or unwilling to adapt.

There are clear signs (and ITK) reports that the players are losing faith, and that always spells the end.

We are fast approaching the crucial stage of the season to ensure our survival. We have to be taking points from teams like Villa, Brentford, Forest, Everton and Southampton, or we are down.

We have never put a run together against our nearest rivals under Marsch.

Relying on last minute comebacks is not sustainable.

The football is dire.

Marsch looks like he is losing the plot, screaming at fans during the game about the players being 'scared'.

It's over, basically. Dead man walking.
Doesn't make pleasant reading :(

Apparently it was their advice to get the best coach available which led Orta to go after Bielsa. Maybe the link with Rutter is also indicative of moving away from the focus on Red Bull players.

The level of player investment this window would suggest he’s going nowhere soon. Assuming we land the big fish

Might not be fashionable on this thread but I look forward to and enjoy the games.

It's 90 minutes of combined excitement, frustration, cultural difference, disbelief, enthusiasm, disappointment, headwrecking and occasional joy.
Supporting most other teams must be boring by comparison.

For the moment, it's a work in progress. By the end of Feb, Jesse could be the hero or the villain. Hope he makes it to hero status and think the dice will be cast by then either way.

I have to say, I struggle to get my head round our fan base who don't watch Leeds when on TV.

My god, all the dross I travelled 1000s of miles to watch Leeds pre-Bielsa & in the 80s.

Even the home games are 130 miles all round trip for me.

But a new manager would like his own players. Tbf, Ritter seems to be a club buy

Thats what I say, careful what we wish for, some folk think we can just start again and splash £££mega-millions for a new manager everytime we have a poor run.

Jesse is very close to the sack in my eyes, and the reason he loses or keeps his job is in the hands of other teams.

I don't think he's gonna produse many more Chelsea performances coz we're getting found out more and more.

So other teams around u doing shitter than us mght keep his odd result in a job, if they all buck up he's fcked.
Not dependent on Google, the www or 'stats' - Just a guy that puts his eyes to full use on the beautiful game :geek: ...That Ayling goal and "You couldn't script it :lol: " - Dirty Leeds B@stard.
Must dash.

I think it is the board throwing money at new players rather than admitting they made a huge mistake. They are hoping that by buying players it will be enough to keep us up whereas the sensible decision would be to use the money on a better manager but that would be a huge admission that they got it wrong.

Previous managers at the club have done well without needing to splach £££mega-millions. A good manager should be able to get more out of the players than a bad manager. No particular names spring to mind but maybe Jaydog can help me remember....

I’m sure you said in the very very recent past we’d be mad to sack Marsch. What’s changed?

Strangely enough Southampton have a similar record to us. It is 2 wins in their last 15 league matches - 1 of those wins was against Chelsea. I think ours and Southampton's results against Chelsea may have had a lot to do with Chelsea being really bad at the start of the season, so bad in fact they sacked their manager.
